Science will be high on the agenda at the University of the Sunshine Coast tomorrow (Thursday 3 September) when the University hosts both the Australian and Queensland Science Ministers at two separate events.

Federal Minister for Industry and Science Ian Macfarlane will meet with USC’s executive staff and engineering and science academics for a roundtable discussion about the government’s scientific and industrial objectives.

The afternoon meeting has been arranged to help align USC’s study programs with national and regional imperatives.

Mr Macfarlane also will inspect USC’s innovative $37.2 million Engineering Learning Hub, which is to be officially opened soon.

This building is an initiative of the Australian Government’s Education Investment Fund and USC and contains state-of-the-art immersive visualisation equipment that is being used for learning and teaching.
